[SIZE=1]WHEREAS, it has been observed that such unregulated use of sirens, bells, horns, whistles or similar gadgets that emit exceptionally loud or startling sounds, including domelights and similar signalling or flashing devices actually impede and confuse traffic, are inconsistent with sound traffic discipline and control on the highways, and in effect constitute a major problem in the maintenance of peace and order; [/SIZE]

Yes this is an existing PD since 1973, but there are still a lot of road users that use these illegal devices to have their way on the streets. I would like to believe that it is a simple cause of ignorance of this law but I have doubts on those who still use these devices despite this is an illegal practice.

or stripsol para mas ramdam agad ang ginhawa even sa tao very effective kasi magkakamot siya :eviltongu

When I encounter these idiots, I always wish that they would smash their cars into a wall.

or concrete mixer for me (head on) :evillaugh

Hehehe in Fairview area, Buses and Jeepneys counter flows even without sirens that's why they kill pedestrians almost everyday I've seen a stupid tricycle driver (they are not suppose to be on main roads) who throws an adjustable wrench on a speeding FermEx Bus who almost side sweep him.

Pabayaan nyo na ang mga ogags na sila-sila ang magtirahan. Not worth kung kayo ang papatol sa mga abusado at arogante. Makakatagpo din naman ang mga yan ng kapareho nilang ogag.

I have Blinkers and Sirens with papers of course, but I never do counter flow in my whole life and never use them to bully others.

yeah!

But if I had such a device, I'd use it to shoot and block out improperly installed HID and high beam lights that I encounter on the road.

For the counterflowing wangwangs -- yep, stripsol pellets.

Pag may mag manufacture nito -- first in line ako sa mga bibili.

Wag sa harap kasi baka bumangga pa sa yo. Ang maganda nyan, sa gilid (siguro sa may bandang left rear wheel well para tago) para pag nag-give way ka at dumaan sa tabi mo bigla mo ratratan tapos iwanan mo na!
